Indeed. Tried that before, had the problem that it didn't activate,
couldn't figure out why. Seems you've fixed that one, so yes, 30 second
fix.

Ah. Turns out there is a default image for a tree node when running on
Windows, but not when running on Linux. Cross-platform? Hmm... Fixed.

Major logic bomb. Actually, could create more than one subfolder - as
long as the new one was added to a *different* one. It overwrote the
treeid of the parent folder instead of the child...
Along this, also fixed a bug with empty folders.

Dunno either, but it seems stupid. So now it refuses it.

Yeah. Fixed.

Hmm. It was included in the first one, missed it in the libxml version.
Included again in this one.

Build instructions attached as a separate patch. Don't have an env to
test it in, but it should be simple 'nuf.

I like the latter. Even better if it could be made a relative directory
wrt to the pgadmin directory. Say I have c:\src, then I could have
c:\src\pgadmin3 and c:\src\pgamdin-preqreqs. Or so.

Doesn't show up in VC7 or GCC. Google told me to use
WX_DEFINE_ARRAY_PTR() instead of WX_DEFINE_ARRAY(). Can't test it
though. (Google also says the warning is harmless, but if there is a way
to make it go away it should be done)

Unix build system patch unchanged and thus not included.
